Basically, it brings an extraordinary vaping experience, as this boutique pod system is the perfect companion in your life.
Exceptional Construction and Design
VOOPOO Argus G2 Pod System demonstrates yet again their knack for brilliant aesthetics, featuring a futuristic pen-style design that instantly draws you in. The ultra-slim and compact Argus G2 has a glossy metallic exterior, and it contrasts well with the black, understated display screen panel. Basically, the nanometer-scale polishing process brings a shimmering and smooth sensation.
The device is highly ergonomic, too, using curved edges to ensure flawless comfort as you grip it throughout the day. The device is also extremely portable, as its size and shape allow it to slip into your pocket, purse, or bag compartment effortlessly, so that you can carry it around all day without any kind of hassle. The size also makes it a more discreet option on the market. Racing-grade zinc alloy material makes the device strong and sturdy, while it is inlaid with the ARGUS logo for a dazzling display of nobility. Still, it’s extremely lightweight, adding to its travel-friendliness even further.
Advanced Functionalities Concealed in a User-Friendly Interface
VOOPOO Argus G2 Pod System may be very compact, but it’s packed with features that elevate every pull of vapor that you take. And, it’s a great entry-level choice, as it’s very easy to navigate, relying on an intuitive interface that requires little technological know-how. The device is powered by a 1000mAh battery, which is conveniently built into the mod so that you don’t need to manage and maintain it separately.
Having that high-capacity battery allows you to get a lot out of each pull, as it enables a high output level if desired. It also means that you can enjoy lots and lots of satisfying vapor before needing to recharge. Conveniently, you can just plug your trusty USB-C charger cable into the charge port on the system’s chassis, and then simply enjoy rapid-charging that lets you to get back to vaping in no time.
This device operates up to 30 watts, and you can make minor output adjustments using the display screen using the single button (it’s a firing/navigation button). This button also takes the device from button-activated to draw-activated. The use of OLED technology allows the display screen to supply plenty of info in real-time, such as Battery status, E-Liquid level, Puffs, Mode, and Wattage, etc., all in bold and bright colors, with an RGB color-based system.
Besides adjustable wattage, the device offers 3 alternative power modes:
- SUPER MODE: Supplies a full bodied flavor.
- SMART MODE: Optimum vaping sessions.
- ECO Mode: Reduces power and E-Juice consumption.
Each Mode can elevate your vaping sessions in their own way. And, depending upon the Mode you’re in, there’s an accompanied neat animation:
- SUPER has a UFO with a blue theme.
- SMART shows flames with a red theme.
- ECO displays a majestic-like green theme, which sorta resembles fruit in water being sucked into a straw, or something to that extent.
Enhancing those modes even further is a sliding airflow switch to go between MTL (Mouth-To-Lung), DTL (Direct-To-Lung), or slightly RDL (Restricted Direct-Lung) vapes, in order to accommodate your style.
Numerous integrated safety protocols and smart technology indicators ensure your vaping experience runs smoothly. There’s even a motor vibration to alert abnormal conditions. All this is made possible, of course, with the use of VooPoo’s proprietary Gene.AI 2.0 Chip.
Integrated Pod Technology
The G2 comes with two top-fill (easily accessible when the pod is inserted into the device for mess-free and easy filling) refillable 3mL pods: 0.4ohm Argus Pod and 0.7ohm Argus Pod. Each pod has a built-in coil, which makes your vaping life much simpler by eliminating the need to replace and maintain coils separately from the rest of your hardware. Depending upon the pod, you can be vaping salt-based or freebase nicotine. The use of iCOSM CODE technology allows for various interpretations of flavor, as coils with different resistances impact E-Juice’s overall taste differently.
Each pod is made from PCTG material, which is highly durable. You can see your E-Juice level thanks to the translucent nature of the cartridge’s chassis (although they’re slightly tinted), and you can connect your pods to your device magnetically so that they stay secure as you travel with your kit in your pocket during the day. The cart’s tapered mouthpiece design adds to its visual appeal while serving the function of concentrating your vapor to enhance its flavor and density. This mouthpiece also feels great as it rests against the lips each time you draw a cloud into your mouth.
